Okay I think I've shaken off my art block,will start on Omens' commission this weekend.
Here's my latest, it's actually my mesmer..she's been in a few storylines before I even play GW and if I were to design her, this is what she'd look like

In the beginning to me it seemed like your outlines were a bit too thick and smudgey for the shades and colors, but it seems like now that you've found a happy medium and they look great together. =) Everything seems to blend very nicely. Great to see your improvement!
InfestedHydralisk
Yeah I kinda wish that Mesmers had long hair too.
Ravenhawk
Thanks! I actually typed down what I did to color this last piece so..hopefully we'll see more consistency from here on ^_^.
I re-did the coloring for this one at least three times cos I couldn't remember how I color my stuff and was in the middle of art block >_<

Updated first page. Currently working on Omens' and bumped up Nova and Tommy to the waiting list.
Aaaand...decided to put a background to my char artwork in between. I mostly used custom brushes for the background but I added some personal touches to it later on. I had no idea what background I wanted so I just let the colors decide for themselves and eventually I came to this.
She'll always be my mesmer so I have her designed with the ability to cast illusions and/or mess with people's minds (Although in GW, I am a Domination Mesmer most of the time lol):

Got busy last week and in the middle of it all, I hurt my right shoulder. I had a complete lineart/shading/base-colored of this OC for my friend sitting around and since I couldn't do precise lines effectively with my injury I decided to color and finish this piece.
I am starting to feel better now so I'll focus on Omens' art this time! Sorry for the intermission -_-"

Incredible drawings Raven. Personally, I like the rit drawing the best, but then again, I have a weak spot for them. I like your use of eye-catching colours, and drawing awesome poses. Can't wait to see more!

Though I could never say no to free sketches it would be unfair, I did nothing! Unless you want one of my bads...

Sketches like that only take me 10-20 mins unless I obssess over it ^^.
And on a random note, here's a quick experiment I made coloring without using airbrush. Only did this quickly (think 20 mins) and quite messily but I like how it turned out. Been awhile since I drew full blown anime style.
It's Death Note's Light Yagami

I just saw your thread (I started with the last page), and I went "OMG this is awesome!".
Then I went to the first page to sign up to the list, and went "Awww nooooo it's closed
".
Hopefully I'll be checking in here next time your commission queue is open, I reeeeally want a picture of Minami drawn by you...

Apologies to Nova for the delay in the commission. I started it this weekend and didn't like how it was turning out so I thought I had to make 180 degree turn and start over. I was feeling an impending Art Block coming.
I might change the pose that I had in mind for Nova's piece. For now, I started a new one of my three main characters (I find that's how I usually get over my art block, draw something very familiar to me and a scene that paints a story in my head.). They are all my Role Play characters and they met at the Northern Wall. So this scene is actually them getting cornered by the Charr...I wrote a story about it but it's still in progress. So yes, the Ranger and the Mesmer are probably familiar to you guys. The third is my monk Dani. (Which needs to have a wand and her arm possibly fixed lol)
I am targetting to finish this one either today or tomorrow then finally restart Nova's drawing. I now figured out what I did 'wrong' when I started that commission while working on this random piece.
Close up. Just threw in some random colors that I am going to take out lol

no problems, rather have one that everyones happy with then one that got done with speed
Ravenhawk
Can't spend as much time on it as I wanted to *blames day job lol* but it's coming along just fine. Here's a cropped version. I think I am liking this new coloring style. Still rough and monk's arm needs to be fixed =P
StormX
very nice piece, i think i like this coloring style better too =) maybe its the use of more sepia/earth tones? cant give better critique, i dunno jack about art lol
Ravenhawk
Thanks StormX.
It's not as much as it was with the sepia tone (I am not even sure if it's going to stay that way until the end atm lol) but what I did differently (so far) is not use air/soft brush to paint/shade. The rough/hard brush seems to give the drawing much more edge (no pun intended).
It looks less realistic but I like the comicbook art feel to it.

Sick stuff the movement/pose is awsome with all 3 characters especially the monk it looks like she can kick some real ass
StormX
Ah, i see the difference now. The outlines are more clearly defined. may i ask what brush you use to do the lineart though? or is it scanned? i've tried drawing with tablet, but i keep getting pixelly looking lines nomatter how high the resolution

For the lineart, depends on the software you use. I use sketchbook pro for the lineart since I like how responsive it is (My computer probably can't handle photoshop for initial sketching/lineart so I have to use a more lightweight software). If you use photoshop, there's a brush that is called Pen Pressure I think. You can then adjust the opacity, flow settings as you see fit as well. Also what I find really helpful is putting a piece of paper on top of your pen tablet while doing your sketch. It has that pencil on paper feeling that gives me more control (cos I have shaky hands)
